This study provides a comprehensive overview of research ethics in science using an approach that combine bibliometric analysis and systematic review. The importance ethical conduct scientific to maintain integrity, credibility, societal relevance has been highlighted. findings revealed growing awareness issues, as evidenced by the development numerous guidelines, codes conduct, oversight institutions. However, significant challenges persist, including lack standardized approaches for detecting misconduct, limited understanding factors contributing unethical behavior, unclear definitions violations. To address these this recommends promoting transparency data sharing, enhancing education, training programs, establishing robust mechanisms identify encouraging collaborative open practices. emphasizes need restore public confidence science, protect its positive impact, effectively global challenges, while upholding principles social responsibility justice. is crucial maintaining conserving resources, safeguarding both participants public.

The open-science movement seeks to make research more transparent and accessible. To that end, researchers are increasingly expected share de-identified data with other scholars for review, reanalysis, reuse. In psychology, practices have been explored primarily within the context of quantitative data, but demands qualitative becoming prevalent. Narrative far challenging de-identify fully, because methods often used in studies marginalized, minoritized, and/or traumatized populations, sharing may pose substantial risks participants if their information can be later reidentified. date, there has little guidance literature on how data. address this gap, we developed a methodological framework remediating sensitive narrative This multiphase process is modeled common qualitative-coding strategies. first phase includes consultations diverse stakeholders sources understand reidentifiability data-sharing concerns. second outlines an iterative recognizing potentially identifiable constructing individualized remediation strategies through group review consensus. third multiple assessing validity de-identification analyses (i.e., whether remediated transcripts adequately protect participants’ privacy). We applied set 32 interviews sexual-assault survivors. provide case examples blurring redaction techniques names, dates, locations, trauma histories, help-seeking experiences, about dyadic interactions.

ABSTRACT This article discusses how open science principles—often rooted in quantitative epistemologies—and qualitative evaluation practices can complement each other and explores strategies for evaluators researchers to consider adopting their practices. Although the approaches knowledge creation may be perceived as being conflict, many values viewed different expressions of shared goals rigor transparency. We describe like data, process, outcome sharing activities that already align with encourage preregistration, registered reports, replication possible areas expand into. also contribute conversations about transparency, community engagement, evaluating effectiveness, avoiding harm. A flexible, additive approach research projects allow all parties draw on other's strengths more rigorous, comprehensive, transparent, community‐centered work. Finally, we suggest a few starting places who are interested incorporating conducting evaluations.

In order overcome these challenges, we suggest six principles may apply civil society that were established between 1970s–1990s: importance identifying researchers’ positionality vis a-vis archive; politics knowledge intersectional identities; avoiding judgment informal practices; who sets rules; silence self-silencing; recognition invisible labor.

Background: Transparency is increasingly recognized as an important goal for research. But while tools and guidance transparency reproducibility abound scholars working quantitatively, relatively few such exist qualitative researchers. Methods: This paper describes the development use of a checklist The provides researchers with comprehensive list documents information to collect archive during course research project suggestions which these can be shared enhance project. Drawing on rich tradition checklists outside academia, built improve quality work facilitate communication in teams, rather than serve tool external assessments. Results: We describe projects conducted at nonprofit organization conducting policy-driven sexual reproductive health. In practice, proves valuable not just planning make materials data available, but also both coordinating organizing larger, team-based maximizing cannot shared.Conclusion: Wider adoption has potential by supporting sharing materials, standardizing rigorous models collection analysis, making consent language interview guides more broadly allowing improved learning across projects.

We find that frequently feel ill-prepared to handle management field formal institutions provide little support. Instead, use patchwork sources devise strategies for protecting informants data. argue this carries substantial risks security as well potential later sharing re-use. conclude some suggestions effectively supporting research without unduly adding burden on conducting it.
